It was something about her; I walked into the house and noticed her in the room I had been staying in.

I left out and went to sit in the living room, this girl whom I known for a short period of time make me want to change my player ways.

She was a beautiful black goddess and everything about her was natural.

Maybe being in Atlanta would be a good thing.

“Why you lying on the couch?”

“Your girl was in my bed, so I just decided to let her sleep.”

“You really feeling her because the old Bleek would’ve been like bitch you gotta get out me bed.” Cash said causing the both of us to laugh.

I had to laugh at Cash but he was right with everything he was saying.

If she was any other female I would woke her up and put her ass out my bed, but she wasn’t any other female.

After tonight she was going to be my lady and more so my wife, I’ve traveled the world and had a female from each place I went.

But none to ever make me feel like Mina made me feel, and we only talked to two seconds.

I was never the one to settle down I have never even had a real relationship.

I didn’t trust women because of my way my mom did my dad.

My dad loved the ground my mother walked on, but that still didn’t stop her from fucking his brother and his friend.

I love my mother to death but she changed my prospective on women and the God honest truth.

“Man you know I don’t trust females; she was just so peaceful I didn’t want to bother her.”

“Yeah ok, well it’s about time you get dressed.”

“Nigga still think he my dad.”

“I almost was.” We laughed in unison

When I walked in the room to grab my clothes Mina was sitting in the middle of the bed with her phone in her hand.

She looked like she was aggravated so I wasn’t going to bother her; I just went in the closet to grab something to put on.

I wanted to ask her if she was alright but I didn’t have time for any back lash from her; I didn’t want to get off on a bad foot.

“I’m sorry I didn’t know you were staying in this room. I’m just so use to coming in and getting straight in this bed.”

“You good I’m about to grab something to wear and be out your way.”

“Nah it has plenty other guest rooms here, so I’ll go to another one.”

“You sure?”

“Postive!”

I watched as she grabbed her belongings and left out the room. I couldn’t take it I had to go and get to know her better. She was doing something to me and I knew nothing about her, but she was making me feel good.

“Come in;” she said as I knocked on the door.

“Hey!”

“What’s up?”

“I know it’s a little soon but do you think we can go out later?”

“Sure how about the waffle house after the club; I love to eat there and I leave the club so that can be out first date.”

“It’s a date!”

“I was wondering when you were going to ask me out.”

While she went through her bags looking for something to wear I sat on bed getting to know her.

She told me everything she went through with her ex and even how he was trying to pop back up asking for money.

Mina didn’t know it but she was already my girl, so her ex needed to kick rocks or catch a bullet.

I looked at her innocence and knew then she was nothing like other girls I was use to dealing with; I knew she was nothing like my mother.

For the first time in life a woman made me think about building a future, leaving the streets alone, and having kids.

Before meeting her I had never thought of anything like that.

But a long time ago my dad told me every woman wasn’t like my mother; I just didn’t get how my dad was still dealing with her and she was dead.

When you love someone though I guess it’s just hard to move on.

I know my dad did him, but he was supposed to because that what niggas do.

But she was supposed to hold home down and make sure he had a meal whenever he made it home.

What she was out there doing would never be accepted in my house.

Mina had no passes I didn’t play bullshit games; she was going to be a mother and take care of home, I was old fashion and didn’t have time for errors.
